1st part: We started our day by a lecture, it was an introduction to GPS
prepared by Fonda he talked about GPS in general ( Why GPS? What is GPS? How
it works, Triangolation, Mesuring Distances, Timing, Satalite Position, and
errors) as usual Fonda shows us a live equimpents for GPS in addition to
that his presentation includs some figurs that were able to give us a clear
view to mesurments, errors,...etc 
The lecture was given by an attendence of R. Stuzak

2nd Part: An introduction to packet Radio, it was prepared by Fonda also, he
started by his interesting way telling us ( What is paket radio, Elements
makes up a packet radio station, Networking schemes, The protocil AX:25,
Lets go on Air, and he ended up by an advanced teqniques). The lecture was
interesting sence Carlo was trying to make everything live for us that helps
us to have a clear view for a paket Radio.
After that we passed quickly through Packet Radio for the Internet
Developing Countries, that alaws us to have an overall idea about the above
minssioned topic.

3rd part: Labrotary excersise with Fonda about Packet Radio in his lab we
had a live demo about paket radio and we were able to get an idea, and see
how packet radio works by a software called packet tracker, and a TNC
connected to the pc..

Thanks Fonda for this interesting lab,
